Free All the Monsters simply consists of a set of plaintive songs that draw on all the stylistic cues this band has worked hard to establish in the past (a Byrds-ian jangle, a touch of Velvets-style dissonance) and tightens everything up a touch. Parallel feelings of warmth and longing criss-cross through much of the material, with songs like "Long Halls" and "On the Bank" bedded down in Kean's warmly looping basslines, while the vocals cut through the glow with a whole heap of self scrutiny.

Free All The Monsters, the bands eighth album shows them in top form. Recorded at Seacliff, a former asylum in the grand Victorian style just outside of Dunedin, New Zealand, and masterfully produced by Dale Cotton (HDU, Dimmer), it captures some of their strongest songs to date. From the melodic and insanely catchy title track through to the psychedelic thrum of second single, In The Subway, the lo-fi folk of Simpletons and the soaring instrumental passages – Free All the Monsters is filled with powerful and haunting guitars, delicate vocals and rhythms that swerve and stomp throughout  . The Bats, Free All the Monsters: An utterly charming set of songs from these Flying Nun stalwarts. Stuff, Simon Sweetman, NZ. It’s The Bats strongest effort in year. his is a classic album from the band.

A new Bats album is like Christmas. Which is to say it’s infrequent, and like the conversations with family members you catch up with for the first time in 12 months, it plays out in a certain familiar, ritualized way, though not without genuine affection. Like family, The Bats are reliable, emerging from the Batcave every few years with a workmanlike long-player for fans of New Zealand’s late-1980s rock scene and Pavement obsessives who heard Stephen Malkmus was pretty hot on the band. The brief, searing solos that leap out of the choruses during Free all the Monsters follow the melody in that ect sort of way that The Beatles mastered with a bit more skill. But, unlike Daddy’s Highway and a couple of their other early albums, Free All the Monsters is 12 tracks long, a much more reasonable length and way better suited to their Byrdsian songs.

Free All the Monsters is the eighth full-length album by New Zealand band The Bats, released in 2011. In December 2010, The Bats recorded tracks for the album at a backpackers and stables at the old Seacliff Asylum, between Oamaru and Dunedin. The album was recorded and co-produced by Dale Cotton, who had produced Robert Scott's recent solo album. The album was released on 15 October 2011

New Zealand Kiwipop heroes the Bats are returning with their eighth studio album Free All the Monsters. And to get us a bit more pumped about the release, they've recently released two videos for tracks off the new album. First up, the title track's vintage-style video takes footage from a Godzilla spinoff flick and follows a couple of kids as they board a spaceship and watch laser-spewing, fire-breathing monsters battle each other, only to later be rescued by the giant flying turtle known as the mighty Gamera  . Watch both of the new music videos below. The Bats' Free All the Monsters will be released in North America on November 22 via Flying Nun. "Free All the Monsters": "In the Subway": MUSIC.

It’s hard to decide which is more impressive, that at the time of their 2011 album, Free All the Monsters, the Bats had been been a band for nearly 30 years (with the same four members!) or that they sound almost exactly the same as they did on their first recordings. Yes, the record is much cleaner, but all the hallmarks of the Bats' sound are there: the close-knit guitar interplay between Robert Scott and Kaye Woodward, the way the duo's vocals fit together like puzzle pieces, Paul Kean’s melodic basslines, and the tightly propulsive drumming of Malcolm Grant.
